Camporosso

Was expecting a little more, but not bad. I recently came across an article discussing the best pizza joints in every state. Camporosso was cited as the best in KY. My wife and I didn't find any component of our visit overly positive or negative and we did finish all our food and drinks. Just seemed to be a minor execution issue, or two. The good: -Service, food, atmosphere were all perfectly acceptable, but no standouts. The badish: -The outdoor dining space was stressful. Very heavy traffic on the road that the patio sits on. -Personal preference - My wife and I just don't care for that charred pizza crust flavor, but other than that the pizza cheese, crust texture, and sauce were solid. There is another crust option called "Americano", but I'm not sure if that style also has the charred areas. -The meatballs were edible but not great. Flavor was fine, but texture was not good. Meatballs were over mixed and were firm as opposed to tender. -My wife's mule was not good due to the lime being smashed into the drink. She commented she was tasting pulp with each drink. I could see Camporosso being great for some individuals, but it didn't blow us away. I wouldn't be opposed to giving another shot. You could do worse.

Just WOW! Fast Italian pizza perfection. Highly recommend - the pizza stands up to the sauce & toppings with its strong & airy crust! Best pizza in the Greater Cincinnati Area hands down. If only they sold it by the slice ;)

If you are looking for great pizza this place won't disappoint. We have had the wood-fired pizza and is was...well....fire! Interesting and creative pizza choices and the staff is friendly and helpful.

I was looking for a place to eat while in town for business. I decided to give this place a shot, and I’m so glad I did! This is now a restaurant I must hit while in town!! The food is absolutely delicious! I ordered a Caesar salad, the Italian-inspired chili (which was phenomenal) and a wood fired personal margarita pizza (also phenomenal!!) The quality of the food was great and everything tasted fresh. You can tell this place is likely family owned, the staff were attentive and very nice, and the place is super cute place and offers outside patio seating as well. Highly recommend!

Wood-Fired Flavor & Five-Star Hospitality Dining at CamporOsso in Ft. Mitchell was a true standout experience. Our group shared the 12” wood-fired CamporOsso Deluxe and All Meat pizzas, plus the Penne Pesto Pasta and classic Spaghetti & Meatballs—every dish was rich with flavor and clearly made from scratch with care. The crispy, fire-kissed crust on the pizza alone was worth the visit! Our server, Michelle, was fantastic—warm, attentive, and on top of every detail without ever feeling rushed. From the first greeting to the last refill, the service matched the quality of the food. Whether you’re local or just passing through Northern Kentucky, CamporOsso is an absolute gem. Five stars for artisan comfort food, great atmosphere, and top-tier service!

Honestly, expected more after seeing this restaurant on DDD; however, overall, I had an enjoyable lunch. Pizza is very subjective; not all styles suit all people. I had a 1/2 sopressata hot honey and 1/2 prosciutto & fig wood-fired pizza. Decent, but I’ve had much better wood-fired; hard to say where it fell short…dough, toppings, sauce?? That said, worth trying for yourself. Comfortable laid back atmosphere, waitstaff is competent and friendly. Other menu items besides pizza.

Some of the best pizza I have ever eaten and I've had the privilege to eat at some excellent pizza shops. Their dough is incredible, toppings are delicious. I ordered all the meat, I suggest you ask for a side of their hot honey as it's not that spicy but really is fantastic. Their Caesar salad was really really good too. We went with a large group and they accomdated us so graciously. The pizzas came out so fast even though the restaurant was full. Great job guys!

First time customers. Meatball appetizer was okay a little bland. Pizza was amazing, the best we have ever tasted. Will be returning for pizza.

Got well done pepperoni in the brick oven, the best pizza i have ever had! Staff very friendly and very good service!

The Yelp reviews brought us here. I rely on Yelp to find new local restaurants. It is especially helpful when planning travel. We went on a Saturday and our plan was to get there when they opened. We walked in right at 11am when they are scheduled to open. We were not the first customers in the restaurant and it very quickly filled up. I read it's always busy at dinner and it's quite busy on the weekends. Plan accordingly. The place is cute and comfortable. I like having a view into the kitchen making area and the huge wood fired stove. Our server was great. I'd made up my mind we were going to get Sopressata Hot Honey - Crushed tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, sopressata salami, local hot honey. They have a fine beer selection and several non-alcoholic options, including mocktails and an NA wine. I opted for the Athletic Run Wild IPA, which was fantastic with the pizza. So the pizza... it took no time at all to put the pizza together and cook it in the wood fired stove. My guess is the Sopressata Hot Honey pizza is one of their most popular and they can probably make it with their eyes closed. The pizza was so good! The cheese, sauce, pepperoni and the hot honey were simply fantastic. I wondered if it would be spicy, but it was not. It was so flavorful and the crust... oh the crust! That wood fired oven does amazing things to the crust. I think I could eat just the crust! We didn't try anything else. We were pretty much in and out, but we left completely satisfied and wishing Camporosso was a little bit closer to us. I think it's safe to say we'll be back.

Well DDD didn't lie this place is great! The pizza is definitely the move if you're coming here I will say. We got the wood fired pizza but looking forward to coming back and trying the other types of crust and other flavors! Really so delicious! Be sure to plan ahead though if you go, they seem to always be packed! They do have outdoor seating wheather permitting

Stoped here as it as featured on DDD which means Guy Fieri ate here. I tried the bucatini pasta which is what he got on the show and it was good despite the fact that I'm not much of a red sauce girl. We also got a deluxe pizza which is wood fired and char cupped pepperoni. Servings were big and now I also have lunch for tomorrow. Service was average, water cups were filled when empty. This place used to be a garage and still has the big doors and an outside eating area.

Just another great experience at one of our favorites. Stuffed on the delicious meals. The Risotto balls are outstanding. Run don't walk

Had a great meal on the patio during warmer weather. Had the all the meat pizza and the pasta bolognese. You can tell everything is made from scratch and the service was great despite how busy it was. It's good to see a locally owned neighborhood spot being so well supported.

We ordered the Deluxe, wood-fired pizza. We sat at the bar and the 2 girls that waited on us were great. We loved having a view of the pizza baking in the wood fire.

Wait: Saturday night 40 minutes. Service: immediate, server was very friendly. Although we didn't get our silverware until after the food was delivered and we had to ask for it. Food ordered: Caesar salad, no anchovies and barbecue chicken pizza. The barbecue was sweet and tangy, overall a really good pizza. Atmosphere: smaller restaurant, very loud. It was one of the coldest days of the year we sat on what would be the patio in the Summer but it was very warm inside.

One of my favorite places to get pizza in NKY. They have so many amazing options with the wood fired option. It's a small location but the service is always great. Just hope you can find a spot around back in the parking lot!

I love a good mom and pop pizza place and Camporosso did not disappoint! I started an early birthday celebration here with my family and it was the absolute best choice! We went on a Thursday and it was packed! Our wait was only about 20 minutes even with the crowd so we were impressed. We ordered the wedge salad and the camporosso deluxe with hot honey drizzled and it was everything!! Both items were absolutely delicious and filled with flavor. Our server was very friendly and fun to chat with! I recommend for all ages, single or date night. I can't wait to return.

Place was good, but not gonna lie I was expecting it to be better. They had a good Caesar which I appreciated and the pizza was yummy but just wish the camp fired one was a little thicker of a slice. Will come back to try the Americana one. Service was good, but it was crazy inside and super tight. Not a good place for a party bigger than 4

Camporosso is a well known, NKY, wood fired pizza parlor with excellent ambiance and authentic food that is worth the wait Parking: on street or in lot behind. Pro tip: reverse into space for ease of exiting Please wait to be seated: there is a hostess stand inside. There are chairs available to sit while waiting on table. Seating very limited, so be prepared to wait outside Wait times vary, but it's worth the wait. Don't want to wait? Arrive before or after lunch and dinner rush, and you can walk in and get immediately seated (most of the time) Bar seating available, and some families open tables to share extra seats with additional parties Covered patio allows for extra seating!!! Service: top notch and above expectations. The servers were awesome! They were so very busy, yet they were visibly smiling, joking with each other and customers, and engaging. Bravo Behind the bar at the stoves: non stop work, very efficient and highly entertaining to watch! Kid friendly - bring your own art supplies! Food: wedge salad - I haven't had one this good in a long time. Caesar was delicious, but will pass for the wedge next time Drinks were delicious and wine selection is second to none Pizza - we tried the prosciutto and fig, hot honey pepperoni, all the meats, and bbq chicken all wood fired. There was not a bad bite in the lot. Crust was superb and adequately salted yet fluffy, perfect for ranch dipping. Able to fold and eat like you do in the city! Cooked thoroughly so no saggy bottoms, flavorful enough to know it's a great crust but not overpowering to the toppings The prosciutto and fig is a hidden delight! No red sauce. If you have heartburn issues with the sauces, I have your next favorite! Savory and sweet with a bit of crunch from the arugula Bbq chicken was southwest style and phenomenal Hot honey, Traditional pepperoni and all the meats were above and beyond Pricing is fabulous(see photo of menu for pricing) We did dine in and carry out - both are amazing! I do prefer the vibe inside. Overall: will become a regular here! It's that good

Went recently after some time (they're always so busy around dinner!!) Still was some of the best pizza around town. We also opted for the chicken parm special which was delicious! The margarita and Quattro pizza was elite we actually got it 'AM' style - a classic za We ate outside and it was a perfect lunch! Also good times here.

Hubby & I stopped in here for an early supper on the evening of December 19th. It took a few minutes to be seated as the host was busy standing around chit-chatting with coworkers. Once seated, we sat and sat and sat. We sat there watching servers wait on regulars . It was easy to spot the regulars as these people were treated like royalty. We also watched other servers stand around in the corners and do nothing . The server who waited on the people seated in front of us walked past our table and I had to stop her to ask to be waited on. She took our drink orders and stated she would be our server. Honestly I was surprised by the poor service as we've eaten here numerous times and have always received excellent service and delicious food and our food was delicious on this night but we were honestly very disappointed in the poor service.

One of the best local restaurants in the area. Be prepared to wait if you go at dinner time or on the weekend, but it is worth it. Every single thing I have tried here has been amazing. Sangria is knock your socks off good (white sangria is pretty sweet). I have tried the hot honey pizza, buffalo chicken pizza, margherita pizza, Italian Cobb salad, Burratta, and meatballs. I honestly don't think there is a bad thing on the menu. Favorites are the Italian Cobb and hot honey pizza. Patio seating is available as well.

1,000 aplologies Eric! (Not Kevin) just watched you and your team on Diners Drive Ins and Dives! Camporosso is the best!!

Ordered: sopressata hot honey pizza qnd prosciutto and fig pizza- wood fire Parking: parking lot in the back We came on a Saturday night for dinner. The wait was about 20 minutes. I enjoyed the casual atmosphere and large screens to watch the bengals. Our server Emma was the super friendly. She gave us great suggestions. We waited about 20 minutes for the freshly baked pizza. This was my first time trying prosciutto and fig- it was sweet yet salty and I enjoyed the fresh arugula on top. The hot honey pizza with salami was top quality! I didn't think we would finish 2 (12 inch pies) but it was the perfect amount if you're hungry. I understand they were busy but the bathroom could use a cleaning.

I can't believe I have not been here sooner! We came here on a Sunday afternoon for lunch and we were so glad there were spots in the patio for a gorgeous day! We started off with the Caesar salad, the wedge salad, and the meatballs. They were sooo good. I could order 2 things of meatballs all to myself for my meal alone! The wedge salad dressing flavors were so delicious. We ordered the soppressata hot honey pizza, the prosciutto and fig pizza, and the margherita. They were all delicious! We couldn't get enough. I can't wait to come back- the service was great also! Such kind workers.

First time at Camporosso! The wood fired option is the way to go!! Smaller sized pizza but so much flavor! We got the Camporosso Deluxe and the Margherita pizza. The spaghetti and meatballs were just fine. A bit bland with a strong tomato flavor. To drink I tried the non alcoholic strawberry fields. It was very good. Service was amazing! Very loud inside but if you sit on the patio it is good! Will be back next time I'm in the area

Started with a burrata appetizer and wedge salad. Burst was delicious. The balsamic was fantastic ( very well aged) Wedge Salad was easily the best I have ever had Pepper & the pig and classic cheese wood fired and perfect my Bologenaise was authentic and huge portion Pesto pasta also amazed We decided to carry out some leftovers so we would have room for desserts Tiramisu, flourless, chocolate cake, and lemon cheesecake or fantastic Cannot resist the affogato with vanilla gelato Such a fantastic and authentic meal, we are looking forward to returning often

Great food and great staff! I can't say enough about how, even when this place is packed, they run things with friendliness and efficiency! Fresh ingredients with great flavor make the food consistently delicious!

There are no reservations. When you walk in you cannot move. Wait time is 30-40 min. Had a pick up order and we couldn't get to the checkout lady 20 min after it was done. Food was cold. Poorly managed place

Fantastic flavor. This is the second time I've been here and the flavor is consistent. The service is consistent. I see why they are famous.

I loved the pizza, but better than that was sitting at the bar watching the staff work as a team and seem to enjoy what they were doing. I was like art and the teamwork was on point. We had the Sopressata Hot Honey, Prosciutto and Fig and the Pepperoni and Sausage. They were all fantastic!

Ordered the Buffalo chicken pizza which was very tasty. The Buffalo sauce is made in house and has great flavor. Waiter recommended the hot honey with our pizza so we got some on the side and added it to the pizza and it did not disappoint. We also ordered the four cheese pizza and that one was kind of a let down. It had no type of sauce on the pizza so kind of just tasted like cheese bread. And was a bit cold when it came out instead of a more melty gooey type of pizza. Our waiter was great though and really helped with all questions and was just very friendly in general.

Food is amazing! Everything we've tried is excellent. Service is exemplary. We've been several times an and the servers are amazing. If something goes wrong they fix it immediately. Never a problem here. Atmosphere is usually noisy as they are packed! Seriously, if you want the best pizza and service come here.

This is a great little restaurant. I love the vibe and the outdoor seating. The staff was pretty friendly. The pizza and appetizers and drinks were delicious. I was surprised how long the pizza took to come out considering it was wood fired but it was pretty good! The best sauce.

Went with daughter, wife, & son in law, and ordered 4 big pizzas. The fig and gorgonzola was our favorite, had a honey taste to it but it was the sweet figs ,. next was the 4 cheese pizza, also good, the bbq chicken and onions was good, and then the usual pizza margherita, always good too. Bill was 100bucs but took some home. I would go again if I lived nearby.

Great homey atmosphere and delicious Italian food. Staff gave great and friendly service. The wood fired pizza is SO GOOD. Also the spaghetti and meatballs were tasty and the wedge salad is amazing.

The Pizza is the best I've found in the area so far. I'm a bit of a Pizza snob. I'm comparing against legendary places in NYC, Philadelphia, and Atlanta among others. Camporossa's keeps up with the best.

Camporosso is becoming one of my favorite places to go while in Northern Kentucky. It has dependably delicious pizza, friendly service and it's around the corner from where my grandparents' lived and my mom grew up -- great food with a bit of nostalgia. I recently visited for lunch with my best friend who lives in the area. We were able to easily get a table and had our orders in within a few minutes. I ordered a favorite from a previous visit: the Prosciutto & Fig pizza. The "wood fired" version is a great size for one person with a few extra pieces to take home with you ... or not if you eat it all ... no judgement. This pizza comes with prosciutto, fig jam, gorgonzola and arugula. The mix of salty and sweet is my favorite part. And the crust is perfectly crispy. My friend got the Sopressata Hot Honey, which was also delicious. I tried a slice! It's made with crushed tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, sopressata salami and local hot honey. Even if you don't like things too spicy (it me!), you should try it. It has just a bit of spice without overdoing it. Our lunch was fun, decently fast, delicious. Also love the fact that Camporosso is in an old garage. Fun place and food! Camporosso holds up!

Great food, great atmosphere, great people. First time going and I couldn't have been happier. The owner stopped by the table to check on us, and clearly cares deeply about his customers' experience. We took our time, but the kitchen and waitress were on it and we could have been out in 30 minutes if we wanted! Will go again.

Stopped by for lunch after a busy day shopping and grocery shopping for the holidays. Ended up being the best decision! Pizza is one of our favorite meals, so the bar was already high, but Camporosso delivered on all fronts. When you walk in, there is a full bar to your left with the pizza oven fire roaring nearby, plenty of indoor seating straight ahead, and a dedicated covered patio area on the right. The place was packed full. We opted for the patio which was nice and warm with space heaters, and quieter too. Servers were fantastic -- came by to check up on us multiple times despite the busy lunch rush. We started off with the Zero Proof Sugar & Spice mocktail, which was delicious with a sugar rim and warm spices. I've found these types of mocktails can oftentimes be overly sweet, but this drink had a good balance. For pizza, we got the Prosciutto & Fig and Sopressata Hot Honey, both wood fired (12"). They also offer a larger 16" Americana style. They were absolutely delicious. Came out piping hot, straight from the oven to our table. The Prosciutto & Fig is on the sweeter side with fig jam, but the fresh arugula and thicker slices of prosciutto help balance it out. The hot honey is essentially a pepperoni pizza with hints of sweetness and spice, not too much in either direction. We each ate an entire 12" pizza with no issues. We came here for a quick lunch stop, but looks like we'll be adding this pizza joint to the rotation whenever we're in Kentucky!

We were looking for a last minute spot to grab dinner and stumbled across this place on yelp. It was fabulous! We had 3 different wood fire pizzas, the meatballs, and the Italian Cobb. Each were fresh and full of flavor! We finished the evening with the smore calzone which was fantastic!

Excellent pizza and salads in a cozy old garage turned restaurant. In the warm weather months there's a nice outdoor patio section for dining but we ate indoor. They offer two styles of pizza -- wood fired and Americana. We got the Americana since it's bigger and really enjoyed it. Great crust along with sauce and the toppings tasted really fresh. Prices are really fair too compared to other similar places. Nice beer and wine list as well so it's just great all around.

Very good Neapolitan pizza best Margherita I'm aware of in the area. Their San Marzano tomato sauce is probably the best I've ever had. The only reason I gave four stars is the place is very noisy when busy. In fairness, had it not been 95F outside we'd have eaten on the patio. Everyone wanted to be inside today. The servers were excellent, and they were constantly hustling for a packed house, never missing a beat.

WOWZA!!! This is by far the best tasting pizza I've ever had! I can't believe it took me years to finally come and try it. We ordered the BBQ Chicken pizza and the All the Meat with added hot honey. I'm speechless on how amazing both pizzas were! Service was great and our drinking glasses were always full. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! This is now our #1 pizza spot!!

Top 10 pizza I've ever had! Wonderful food, friendly & welcoming service. A must stop in the NKY area! Highly recommend the outside patio to soak up all the summer views.

Not so secret of a spot in Northern Kentucky. The wood fired pizza is always cooked perfectly and it's hard to resist another slice. We love coming here and the service is always fast, friendly and attentive. The outdoor patio is covered in the winter and is so cozy! Tonight we were lucky to snag a seat on the heated covered patio with no wait. We demolished a pepperoni and sausage pizza, a hot honey pizza and our kiddos really enjoyed the cheese! We had the pleasure of interacting with one of the owners, Eric. Such a great local spot doing really great things for the community! We are absolutely customers for life after hearing about the incredible ways they give back to the community, and their staff. This review was made in connection with a Toast promotion.

Great food, great service and great atmosphere. Wish I lived closer to enjoy it more often.

This spot is so good, that creates major pit falls. I'd say, forget the weekends... Its simply tooooooo busy. The pizza is a bit pricey, but so tastey and worth. The salads are top notch, pricey, still worth. Chill patio and even indoor vibes. Cool and chill staff. The problem lies in this place, their awesome food, the popularity, and most of all - the parking! You may have to park somewhere and hike over. Just sayin' This place is awesome. I feel like leaving a one star so y'all would stop coming! But this spot is truly worth eating at atleast once. Everything is above average. Its a place that is super special to eat outside at.

Wood-fired pizzas are excellent...Fig and Prosciutto is amazing! Others are also worthwhile. Daily entrees are worth checking out. Wait staff are all good. Great place.

Really good quality pizza! Great servers that offered quality recommendations! Very cool to be able to see the pizza get cooked.. great vibe and pleasant decor. We got the classic cheese and the Sopressata Hot Honey, both were fantastic.. and ended with a s'mores calzone.. wow! We'll be back!

Go to spot for a pizza in greater Cincinnati. Best wood fired pizza in town. Always excellent service and friendly people. The owner is almost always there making sure everyone's experience is great, which makes it even easier to support them.

Such a cool place centered around a wood burning pizza oven. Top notch crew who has a passion to deliver service beyond your expectations. Pizza and pasta are hands down best you will find for miles around.

Great pizza, superb service, Historical location. In 2022, Camporosso was awarded the best pizza pie in the United States.

Food was great! It's very crowded inside with not a lot of space to walk around people. Very nice staff.

Food was great, had a brick oven pizza. Great service, cute garage door patio. Adding words to end review.

Love the pizza, meatballs and the wedge salad with Gorgonzola is fantastic but best split between 2+ people if you want to eat anything else. We typically sit at the bar but everywhere we sit the wait staff if friendly and attentive. The place is simple but clean and you can watch them cook the wood fired pizza in a beautiful pizza oven.
